Nothing but speeding film is able to capture for all time the succession of events which have passed with such incredik rapidity. The hours have been so crowded — but the minutes so that we have had time to do but little more than to acknowledge Omar Khayyam ' s words, so expressly appropriate to the lege year: The Bird of Time has but a little wqi To flutter — and the Bird is on tfc Page Four Now that the Bird of Time has winged its way to the end of this period of our lives, now that this school year is almost gone, perhaps there are regrets on the part of some of us, because we have not fully grasped the perfect ideal; because we have failed to accomplish all that comprises our goal; because we must confess that we have made mistakes. But we must forget those things which are behind and, looking ever onward and upward, catch a vision of the One whose loveliness we want to personify. There must come the realization that perfection is not gained in a day, that there will be tomorrows in which to grow. The mature and wholesome per- sonality in the splendor of Christian beauty graces the highest pedestal man can ever hope to ascend. Such an achievement is the work of a lifetime, not an accomplishment to be grasped in the span of a college career. Page Five The Promenade of 1941 is dedicated to an ideal, one which we realize to be beyond earthly attainment; and yet it is only in seek- ing the fulfillment of this ideal that man is to be found well pleasing in the sight of God. Human personality is the greatest gift God has given to man: without it, he can do nothing of eternal worth; with it, he can reach up toward the perfection of Christ. In using this gift as best he is able, man develops a wholesome and effective personality and toward the achievement of this Man is the supreme creation, the master- piece of God. To live victoriously, he will be spiritual — he will love his Maker, he will live for Him, he will worship Him with all his strength of soul. Man has a life to live; if he gains a knowl- edge and understanding of people and of the problems which will inevitably come, if he bases his precepts on the learning of the ages and on the truths of life so that his activities are characterized by intelligence and wis- dom, his life will be effective. Page Six cuticn Man lives in the flesh. If he is to fully appreciate and enjoy the social relationships, the opportunities for leadership and service, the joys afforded in the course of life, his body must be radiant with health and vitality. ives in a world of beauty; if he acquaints himself with this beauty, his life will be abundant. Man lives in a world of people; if he mingles with them and helps them, he will learn to love them, and his life will be happy. Page Seven dedication But it is not only to this abstract ideal but to a man of idealism who is deeply consecrated in adoration of his Master and who is learned in a field of study which enables him to render great service to his fellowmen, and therefore to God, to a man who is able to see the beautiful in life and to show it to others, who uses his ability and wisdom in making his own life and the lives of others more effective; to a man of true greatness whose life is devoted to building personalities of strength, stability, and beauty; to our Dean, Earl V. Pullias, we dedicate the Promenade of 1941. Page Eight E. V. PULLIAS, B.A.. M.A.. Ph.D. Page Nine For their unbounded generosity in founding the college, and for their spirit of genuine interest in the welfare of each student, Mr. and Mrs. Pepperdine have secured the respect and admiration of every person connected with George Pepperdine College. The founders have been untiring in their efforts not only to provide adequately for the academic needs of the students but also to meet satisfactorily the individual problems of every young person on the campus. Each succeeding year shows a greater realization of this ideal of true education as the college reaches out to develop the per- sonalities of more and more young people, making their lives happier and their usefulness greater. Page Ten w The members of the Board of Trustees are capable men representative of various business interests. Their wise legislation of policies and their final decisions concerning the yearly budget and the selection of the faculty for the institution are adequate evidence of their administrative merit. b 4 off ttyJteeJ Page Eleven Any group of buildings classified en masse as an in- stitution of higher learning cannot stand as its own excuse for being. Not a self-sufficient unit, a college depends for its existence upon the rendering of service to others. Its halls of learning must meet the needs of those who wish to gain the advantages of a college education. It is the respon- sibility of the entire administrative staff to organize the faculty and to determine the academic standards so as to make the college proficient in this respect. pteJ feh t Page Twelve An equally important task lies mainly in the hands of one man, the chief administrator. Young people all over the Uni- ted States desire information concerning George Pepperdine College; high school and junior college graduates want to learn, through personal contact, the special features and policies of the college. This task is ably fulfilled by the magnetic per- sonality of Hugh M. Tiner, presi- dent of George Pepperdine College. HUGH M. TINER, B.A..

Another of its purposes has been the binding together of all student campus organizations into an integrated whole in order to foster a wholesome school spirit and promote cooperation among the various groups. At all times the council has attempted to keep in close touch with the Associated Students, which it represents and for which it acts as an executive head. The most outstanding services performed by the council have been the organization of the Student Social Committee, the revision of the Associated Students ' constitution, and the compilation and editing of a student handbook outlining the ideals, traditions, and social organization of Pepperdine. This publication will be presented to students entering school this coming year. The Student Council has also taken the responsibility for two mornings a week in chapel. Under its direction, the various clubs on the campus have cooperated with the council in sponsoring interesting speakers, musical pro- grams, and other worthwhile presentations. This year, it is felt that the council, under the competent leadership of Wil- liam Allen, has taken a definite step forward in arousing a deeper, more vital school spirit, a spirit which in years to come will bring about the ideal of a co- operative, character building community for which the school was founded.

An accredited four-year liberal arts col- lege, Pepperdine provides adequate facilities for the serious pursuit of undergraduate studies, for concentrated effort in scholarly research in the fields of literature, languages, social and natural sciences, and in business administration. Page Sixteen e aesthetics, Fine Arts and Speech e college is outstanding. Creative ex- in original composition is encour- directed, and the opportunity for al participation so essential for unlimited progress in artistic lines is offered by the de- partment. Talented students provide enter- tainment for frequent social gatherings on the campus. The wholesome personality takes into account these four phases of life: the spirit- ual, the academic, the social and aesthetic, and the physical. Page Seventeen No Book has so profoundly influ- enced the story of the human race as has the Bible. It has helped to shape the civil and social life, the educational and home life, as well as the religious life of man. Its teachings have entered into the philosophies of great leaders and states- men, who have gone to the Bible as the very spring of thought and inspiration. It is the one Book that does not become obsolete but keeps far abreast of ad- vancing civilization. Page Eights Pag If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. —John 8:31, 32 t I SANDERS. B.S.. M.S., Professor ol Bible The department of religion seeks to aid each student in finding his proper relationship to the world, to society, and to God. It seeks to develop a general framework that will enable him to keep spiritual balance and proportion, a frame- work into which he may place knowledges gained in other fields of study. But above all, we emphasize a knowledge of God as revealed in Christ as the integrating factor of life. belicfi oh Page Nineteen ieti 9 ' The Bible holds the central place at George Pepperdine College. It is taught as the revealed Word of God and the only source book of redemption and salvation. An intelligent understanding of it is considered necessary for adequate religious leadership and successful Christian living, even a general education is incomplete if it does not acquaint one with the Book that holds the highest place in our cultural heritage. Since right conduct is emphasized not as a system of rules but as an art of living, the department seeks not only to regulate external behavior but to undergird the whole life with sincere motives and an understanding of the Word of God. Hubert Derrick I. Herman Campbell W. B. WEST. JR.. B.A.. M.A. Instructor in Greek JOSEPH WELLES WHITE. B.A. Assistant Instructor in Religion Courses are arranged so that lower division students may gain an ap- preciation of the Old Testament, an intensive knowledge of the life of Christ, and an understanding of the growth and spread of the church throughout the world. Upper division courses provide for detailed and intensive study of certain portions of the Biblical Scriptures and of specialized fields of religious study such as church history, Christian evidences, and religious education. Page Twenty-one chiiich utbk Young Christians are exceedingly zealous; their good works are spon- taneous and are carried on with enthusiasm and interest. The zeal of the young people at Pepperdine is directed into varied channels: some help in the religious programs of Mexican, Japanese, and Gypsy missions; some teach regular Bible school classes; some preach or lead singing in church services; still others establish new places for worship in communities where there have been no churches.

Bud Whitte Mr. J. P. Sanders, Sponsor Study to show thyself approved unto God a workman that needeth not to be ashamed was the admonition given to young Timothy by Paul the apostle. This is the motto of a group of Christian young men who, from week to week, have met in an effort to increase their knowledge, renew their zeal, and develop a deeper spirituality. The group has a chairman to take charge of the meetings and a pro- gram committee to arrange activities. Difficult problems are discussed; talks are given by faculty members and guests from the outside; sessions of impromptu speaking are held; and vital issues are debated. This group, organized during the first year of the school ' s existence, has continued true to the aims of its founders and has rendered invaluable service to those who have enjoyed its meetings. titncthif club Page Twenty-three toctdh ip Although not on the campus, the Vermont Avenue Church of Christ is easily accessible to the college and is therefore, the regular pjace of wor- ship for many of the students. The church building provides a suitable meeting place for the young people ' s services on Monday evenings. Page Tv In their desire to come closer together in spiritual understanding, a group of young people from the college and from the com- munity meet together for a short period every Monday evening. These meetings have been held weekly since the fall of 1937. Since many of the young men of the college are seeking to fit themselves for the ministry, and since others desire to become efficient in directing other phases of the worship service, in the leading of prayer and of song and in the reading of scrip- ture, taking charge of these meetings affords opportunity for actual participation. Religion is of primary importance in the lives of the young men and women who attend the college. By their presence at mid-week church services, they avail themselves of further op- portunities for Bible study. h tit I Page Twenty-six ' ■1 R it r ,. -j A chapel hour for daily worship is set aside at George Pep- perdine College. It is the only time in the course of the school day that affords opportunity for all the students, faculty members, and administrators to be assembled together. The leaders of the college feel that this period of devotion is a direct expression of the spirit which pervades the campus, a spirit of adoration and praise for the One around whom the activities of a Christian col- lege are centered.

As students work toward their Bachelor ' s degrees, they often find it necessary to consult with Mr. Campbell in regard to their aca- demic standing. His authoritative decisions are always given in a spirit of kindly helpfulness. Be- cause of the efficiency of his work, the other admini- strative offices are made to run more smoothly. beyiAtbtii I. HERMAN CAMPBELL, B.A., M.A. Registrar enyliAk To every college student there comes the in- valuable influence of the English Department. It is there that he may cultivate his ability for effective self-expression, both oral and written, and it is there that he may be introduced to excellent literature of all types. The skill of self-expression, so vital to suc- cess in other college courses, retains its signifi- cance in all life ' s relationships, making for effectiveness of work and wholesomeness of mind. Acquaintance with the minds and pens of truly great men imparts a wealth of vicarious experience which contributes greatly to intel- lectual and emotional maturity.

It is the belief of the department that this ideal may be realized by stressing and developing the finest qualities of the human mind, and by helping them to a basic understanding of human nature, including knowledge of self and of others. Further it is the wish of the department that these young people, especially those preparing to teach, may with this background render to others a service simila r to that which they receive from the department. FRANCES JOSEPHINE EASLEY. B.A., M.A. ite Professor of Education M Acciift Science In the Department of the Social Sciences the student may become ac- quainted with the efforts of man to adjust himself to his environment and to mould his environment to his own ends. Man is, and ever has been, making an effort to become more secure in life. He, therefore, builds strong govern- ments, goes to battle with his neighbors, makes peace, obtains an education, and interests himself in religion. It is the progress of man in his search for security which the student may trace in the social sciences. JAY L.

Sponsor To bring about a better understanding of present political situations to those interested in fostering better government in city, state, and national affairs : to this end a group of students interested in political science organized the Decurean society in the spring guarter of the 1939-40 school year. Not content with mere theorizing, program chairmen have brought first-hand observers to the campus. I saw the Germans come into Paris ' These were the words of the negro, Mr. Lowe, just back from Paris. This is the life and death of a bill in our state legislature, Assemblyman Jack Massion told members at a luncheon meeting. This is what the draft means to us today! said draft Board Chairman Leo Tilly. But activities go beyond meetings; understandings are broader than just one discussion. Elections and the current news have been reviewed, and a bulletin board has been set up with timely comments. Meetings have been thrown open to the general student body, and interest carries over into the political science classes. Although the Decureans do not feature social activities, they have many luncheon meetings. A spring banguet concludes each year ' s activities. {ect(ie 4H Page Thirty-seven - - jfeieiyH Kv i DEDERICH NAVALL, Ph.D. Professor ol French and G V ... HUBERT G. DERRICK. B.A..

The Foreign Lan- guage Department acquaints the student with the spirit of great men whom he would not otherwise know except through the imperfec- tions of a translation. Equally as valuable is the sympathy and understanding for the human personality which comes from a study of other peoples through the medium of their language and literature.

Stressing a functional ability to converse in Spanish, and at the same time seeking to vitalize the study of the language, the club conducts both business and social meetings in Spanish. Interesting speakers, trips to Olvera Street and the Mexican theater, and teas held at the president ' s home afford students opportunity for enjoyment as well as for learning. The club orchestra, too, has been a source of much pleasure to members. Organized this year, the Spanish Club has become one of the most active and useful academic clubs on the campus. rcAter Leslie Baxter Patricia Carty Patria Christy Hector Corrales Bill Stivers, President Frank Montgomery.

Emphasizing personal observation, the club sponsored various trips to such places as San Diego and Mexico, Mt. Wilson Observatory, and the wild flower fields of Kern County and Santa Barbara. Other local trips included visits to the beach, Griffith Park, and Exposition Park. The outstanding annual event is a two-day trip to Catalina. At the regular meetings, members and guests have had the opportunity of hearing enlightening talks on such topics as Alaska, tuberculosis, and the rela- tionship of California birds to plant life. Meetings held at the homes of members and general group discussions have all aided in making this year an unusually successful and interesting one. jeeth Page Forty-two IMttk-AcieHce j| In 1938, under the leadership of Mrs. Frances Hinds and Dr. R. R. Coons, a group of twenty students organized the Math-Science club for the purpose of promoting interest in the various fields of applied science and mathematics, and making the study of those subjects more meaningful. Discussions led by club members or by outside speakers are featured at the meetings, which are held every third Wednesday. A trip to the sound labora- tories at U.C.L.A., and a party at the home of one of the members were the highlights of the club ' s 1940-41 activities. Membership in the Math-Science club is open to any student interested in mathematics or science. fCS tct Robert H mes President Dorothea Yoc urn, Secretary-Treasur William Allen George Gregso C. Y.

They have loved Pepperdine for its idealism, for its faith in them, for its patience with the follies of immaturity; and now they are looking beyond to a world that needs intel- ligent, understanding, sympathetic men and women. Seeing the great need, they are a little tremulous; yet faith in God, faith so strongly evidenced in their leaders at Pepperdine, brings that deep and abiding peace within.

The speech and debate practice and lec- ture rooms are also located in the building. ffihe tfitA Page Seventy-five A great percentage of Pepperdine students have special artistic abilities. To these young people, art is so much an essential part of life that even leisure hours are expended in the furthering of aesthetic knowledge and appreciation and in the perfecting of techniques. Members of the Speech Arts, Music, and Art classes and of the Brush and Palette Guild, Drama Club, Euterpean Club, and Photographer ' s Guild swarm the campus, busy as bees. There, strolling down the promenade is the wistful-eyed ingenue murmuring the lines of Young April ; hurrying toward the rehearsal room is the young musician, case in hand; over in the shade of a spreading palm is the aspiring artist sketching the perspective of the campus architecture; and anywhere and everywhere is the photo fiend with camera poised in hand. All these lend a certain atmosphere to the campus, characteristic of the emphasis placed by the college on the aesthetic phase of education. RUSSEL N. SQUIRE. B.S.M..

Yet, neither experience is completely passive, for the music listener loses himself in another ' s composi- tion only to produce a response which becomes a part of him; and the music creator produces a com- position which creates a response enriching both himself and others. PAT MALONE. B.M. Instructor in Music Page Seventy-seven ei(teipe4HA Since its inception in the fall of 1939, the Euterpean Club has striven to pro- vide opportunity for increasing the enjoyment of music within both the student body and the community. Toward this end they have presented in the Fine Arts Building an hour of recorded music each week. Several chapel programs fea- turing talented students and guest artists are sponsored by the club every year. And as a final project, the club sponsors an annual Spring Concert with student composition and performance. The outstanding work of the club this year, in cooperation with the Music Department and the Faculty Wives ' Club, was the presentation of the Works Progress Administration Concert series, consisting of five concerts, choral and instrumental. Active membership in the Euterpean Club is allowed to students majoring or minoring in music. Associate membership is offered to others who are inter- ested in music and the activities of the club. Proceeds accruing from club activities are set aside for a music scholarship. One of the most active clubs en the campus, the Euterpeans derive much pleasure from their regular meetings, when short musical programs are given by club members. tester Oslyn White, President Ellen Williams.

Coupled with this ideal is the desire that each individual apply his tech- nical skill and natural talent, according to aesthetic principles, to the production of beauty by imitation or by original design.

It was their purpose to draw art students into a closer relationship, at the same time stimu- lating on the campus an appreciation for the best type of art. Unusually active this year, the club has done much in furthering its objec- tives. Exhibits of Chinese prints, of water colors by noted California artists, and of student work have provided opportunities for Pepperdine students to study and enjoy modern art. A silver tea at which guests were privileged to hear an illustrated lecture on flower arrangement was given for students and the community. Articles on art appreciation printed in the Graphic were another project of the guild. In the second quarter, members travelled to Laguna Beach, where they had the opportunity of visiting the studios of a number of well known artists. With the guidance of Miss Lela Schrader, sponsor, guild members have done much this year to broaden their own outlook of the art world, as well as to provide opportunity for others to enjoy art. Page Eighty-three Page Eighty-four fttiJ tA To promote and stimulate picture taking as a useful and artistic hobby, to provide more and better pictures for the Promenade, and to cooperate in cur- tailing the expenses of photography — these are the purposes for which the Photographers ' Guild was created in October, 1938. The building and equipping of a darkroom has been one of the major projects of the club, and it is now possible to turn out an entirely professional- looking picture through the use of club facilities. By arranging for trips to the various show places in the vicinity of the college, the guild makes it possible for camera enthusiasts to get interesting and unusual snapshots with a minimum of expense and a maximum of enjoyment. rteter Charles Butts Callaway Delo Melvin Elliott Evelyn Ellis Harold Himes, President George Gregson.

M.A. Professor of Speech and Dramatic In dramatic arts and in oral interpretation the self-conscious individual loses himself in vicarious experience and becomes free and fluent in speech and movement. The development of this freedom and fluency brings about the integration of the speech personality — for every person when he speaks is, by what is loosely termed his personality, either reinforcing, or detracting from, the effect of his words. In this department one may strive toward adequate mental and emotional responsiveness to the meanings of literature.

It was the first major production to be staged in the new auditorium. Heading the cast was Miss Claribel Baird, a guest artist from Oklahoma City. Miss Baird ' s tender in- terpretation of Mary, the mother of Jesus, the excellent support given her by the rest of the cast, and the beautiful staging of the play, made Family Portrait an artistic triumph to be long remembered. . ly-eight nAter Ellen Williams, President Barton Weems, Vice-President Maurine Cooper, Secretary-Tre Margaret Alexande Neil Hill Barbara Mann Betty Fershing WarTen Baker Eunice Hepler Mary Dorothy McKnight Vera Romero Leslie Baxter Samuel Hunziker Mary McRae lack Russel Genevieve Cleavelc nd James Keown Marjorie Morrison Mary lane Wolf Miss Malees e Black, Sponsor Early in the fall, the Dramatic Club sponsors an annual speech rally, pre- senting plays, skits, and readings, as well as refreshments — all for the purpose of stimulating interest in drama and related arts. The club, organized in 1938, has become an important factor in increasing dramatic appreciation on the campus. Not only does the club, through its regular meetings at which pro- grams are presented, deepen the interest of members, but it provides, through stage productions given for the entire student body, opportunity for others to enjoy the drama. The club welcomes as members all who are interested either in acting or back stage production. This year the club cooperated with the Speech Department in the produc- tion of two three-act plays, Family Portrait and Young April. In accordance with the club practice of encouraging attendance at the legitimate theater, club meTrrbers finished this year ' s activities with a theater party. Page Eighty-nine debate 4 4 jfeteHJicJ lust as it is important for students in the drama classes to be given oppor- tunities to engage in actual plays, so it is important for students in the speech classes to be given opportunities to speak. Practical experience enables a student to use, and to make permanent, the theoretical knowledge of speech gained in the class room. In order to give this much needed practical experience, a program of inter-collegiate forensics was begun two years ago. Each succeeding year has seen a natural increase in the number of students taking advantage of forensic activities. This year thirty-two students took part in the inter-col- legiate program. BATSELL BARRETT BAXTER, B.A.. M.A. Instructor in Speech Page Ninety Activities began with the Pepperdine Tournament , at which the college was host to the Western Association of Teachers of Speech in its annual debate tournament. Tournaments at Bakersfield, Stockton, Los Angeles, and Denver completed the activities of the year. During the 1940-41 debate season, Pepperdine speakers won thirteen first places, thirteen second places, and eleven third places. Those who took active part in forensics this year are Ray Simpson, Roy Key, Jean Valentine, Albert Lovelady, Robert Armstrong, Daniel Johnson, Claude Spaith, Charles Davenport, Mason Emde, Bud Whitten, Richard Williams, Eunice Hepler, Ella Florence Williams, Aileen Bush, and Caye Bourland. Page Ninety-one Much of the social life at Pepperdine is centered around an appreciation for the beautiful. At musicales, dramatic productions, oratorical contests, and at art exhibits, the students enjoy together the cultural advantages afforded by the college. Whether or not they actually participate in these presentations, all students have the opportunity to culti- vate a better understanding of the fine arts and to develop that sensitivity to beauty which is so essential a factor in the building of a wholesome and well- rounded personality. Page Ninety-two Mcinl committee A complex and rapidly developing campus social life has raised many prob- lems, the solving of which requires careful thought and deliberated action. To assist in organizing the college social life, the student council this year ap- pointed a committee of five students representing various groups on the campus. Under the leadership of Chairman Harry Marlow and Coach Al Duer, the committee has worked this year toward the accomplishment of three impor- tant tasks: the construction of a calendar to record all of the year ' s social events; the planning and supervising of all-school socials; and the organization of an inter-club council. As a result of the activities of the Student Social Committee two successful all-school parties were given this year; calendar conflicts were cut to a mini- mum; and with the cooperation of the Student Council, plans were started for the organization of an inter-club council. Through the activities of this committee, a great advance has been made this year in the campus social organization, and it is confidently expected that continued effort will further improve present conditions. €j renter Harry Marlow.

In accord with this aim, the Faculty Wives presented for the second consecutive year two fifty-dollar cash scholar- ships to the working boy and girl considered by the members to be the students most deserving of the honor. The co-sponsorship of the Concert Series was an- other of the year ' s projects. Under the leadership of Mrs. Russel Squire, the Faculty Wives have sought to make their regular meetings educational as well as merely social and busi- ness; so each month a speaker has been scheduled to present a topic of special interest to the club. A mong others, the lectures included discussions of color and design in costume, period furniture, and flower arrangements. jtfcultij uritfeJ Page Ninety-four Mrs. Hugh M.

Not only the lovely home of the President but also the beau- tiful and spacious grounds surrounding it have been the settings for many of the social highlights of the year. The most memorable occasions for the students were the get acquaint- ed parties: the luncheons, the barbecue, the Freshman on the Green, and the climaxing for- mal reception. Page Ninety-five 1 tn iiltfH kqll In 1937 the name, Marilyn Hall, was chosen for the women ' s residence hall in honor of the small daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Pepperdine. This year Alpha Gammas presented to the dormitory its first guest register, a large book of polished red oak. The occasion for the presentation was the annual Mothers ' Day Open House, and Marilyn Pepperdine was present by request to be the first to affix her signature. The Open House afforded opportunity for parents and friends to visit each room and to see the fine accommodations provided for the resident students. The dormitory is a two-story stucco building arranged with suites of rooms on each side of a central corridor. The guest rooms are on the first floor adjoining the large reception room. Page Ninety-six ALVALYN BAUCUM. B.A.. Hostess of Marilyn Hall The women of Marilyn Hall have met several times during the year to discuss problems of com- mon concern. These group meetings have been a definite factor in bringing the women to a clearer understanding of dormitory regulations and of the necessity of co-operative group functioning.

Since its organization, twenty-five members have been added, and club headquarters has been shifted from the garage apartment to the men ' s residence hall.

The members attempt to pledge to membership boys who will be congenial with their fellow-members, and who, as a group, will represent all phases of student life.

After the annual mixer given October 3, an overnight beach party was given for prospective members. The old and new members of the club were entertained November 30 with a luncheon given by two alumnae, Mrs. Norvel Young and Miss Willabeth Schmidt.

This activity is organized and conducted by K.K. and has become a much-enjoyed annual affair. This year the Dutch theme was exchanged for a wanderer motif, with the knot and anchor as symbol. Guided and encouraged by Miss Pat Malone, sponsor, the club has engaged in many enjoyable social activities, including dinners, teas, and good old dormitory feeds. This year ' s activities will be climaxed by a banquet held at the Miramar in Santa Monica.

The schedule began with volleyball. Teams were organized by the various social clubs and by the freshmen and independent women. The women ' s independent team, the Sparkletts, captained by Lajla Mohr, captured the volleyball championship. The Zio Kem came in second, with the Cleziettes in third place. The Sparkletts, maintaining their excellent organi- zation, were victors of the basketball tournament also. Zio Kem again took second and Cleziettes third place. A splendid spirit was kept up by the Cailinns throughout the tournament. The K. K. and the Clava Dia exhibited several very unusual players. Individual sports beginning in the spring quarter consisted of tennis, archery, and badminton. Soft- ball was the important team sport of the quarter. Play Day on May 2 gave the women a chance in track events. o v ( ■laiii cfifimntiAimfh In the Gym beauty and simplicity of line are combined with utilitarian design. The modern architecture is in keeping with the other buildings on the campus. Well-constructed bleachers border two sides of the large game lloor. Provision is made for all kinds of indoor sports, including basketball, volleyball, badminton, ping- pong, tumbling, and shuffleboard. Plans are in progress for a separate gymnasium for the women. To meet present needs, however, there are lockers and shower rooms on the south side for the men and on the north for the women, and use of the main floor is scheduled. Page One Hundred Twenty-Four With good, sportsmanlike competition resulting from very evenly matched teams in all sports, the men ' s intra- mural program reached a new high in success this year. Bob Davenport served as student manager until late in the year when Artie Bell took the post. The competition has been between five teams: Bachelor ' s, Beachcombers, Sub- T-16 ' s, Frater Sodalis, and Independents. In place of an inter-school schedule in football came the annual intramural touchball tournament, played by seven-man teams. A strong Sub-T squad copped the title, ending the season with a 42-7 victory over an all-star team and the record of being scored on only once before. The Bachelors captured the next championship, that of basket- ball. Large scores with but one defeat characterized the winners ' record. In individual honors, Gary Ruby won the ping-pong singles. At press time, the Softball tournament found the Bache- lors and Sub-T ' s battling for first, while the annual Track and Field Day, scheduled for May 23, had the Bachelors as heavy favorites. Doubles in ping-pong, badminton, archery, and tennis concluded the intramural season. fit eh J fhtitftntfitffj Page One Hundred Twenty-Five VtfiAitij Members of the first string, largely responsible for the close-to-50% win average, were Bob Jones, Captain, season high point man, and jumper extra-ordinary; Doc Allen, steady center; Dale Stewart, forward, and Morns Ruby, guard, who provided together most of the amazing and memorable speed; and Red Hollo- way, deadeye guard. Substitutes were Bill Thomas, center and for - ward; Bob Lewis, forward; Earl Imbler and fason Decker, guards. IT PageOneHun: bnAketlmll On the basis of a good record of victories, in spite of losses that cut the squad early in the season to eight men and the addition of a number of strong teams to the schedule, Coach Al Duer ' s varsity basketball proteges drew the curtain on the 1941 season with the distinction of being one of the finest teams ever developed in the abbreviated annals of Pepperdine College. Vet ' iAitii Feature highlight of the year was the trip up the coast to Santa Barbara, the first trip taken by a Pepperdine basketball team, where the locals lost both games of a double series, but to sensationally good opponents. Progress to- ward a conference was evidenced also in games for the first time with Loyola University and Occidental College, as well as with continued competition with Whittier, Redlands, LaVerne, Santa Monica, and of great importance, Chap- man. Games to be long remembered were the second tilt with Chapman, when the locals avenged an earlier defeat mid the loudest cheering of the season, the second tussle with Whittier, when Pepperdine thoroughly shellacked the Poets; the two Occidental games, which were lost by one and two points in thrilling last minute play. Hundred Twenl rtL I A championship team beyond all doubt was the major characteristic of the 1940-41 freshman season — the amazing aftermath of early season dis- couragement based on a lack of men with even fewer good players. How Coach Milt Berg, added to the staff this year, brought a tricky system of play, made basketball men out of men who played for the first time, and closed the season with a long record of straight wins with few defeats, is the history of the frosh season. Occidental ' s highly touted team, beaten only during the season once — by the Ripples, Loyola ' s frosh, Redlands second team — all these went the way of good teams when they met the local frosh. High scores and overwhelming play highlighted a season which almost neared perfection. Vinall i k. 9 4_ Page One Hurvi finch A matter of some discussion are the three possible beginnings of the Pep- perdine 1941 track season. First came the start of rigid practice back in early October, imposed by Coach J. Eddie Weems. Then in late December, veteran Jack Russell took to the rails for New Orleans, where he placed fourth in the half-mile event of the Sugar Bowl Invitational. But what is considered the real beginning of the season came following March 22 with the headlines, Track- men Take Three for Three — Pepperdine Whips U.S.C. in Open Two Mile. In this meet, the Long Beach Relays, the two mile quartet, composed of Jack Russell, Joe Funston, Joe Seitz, and Harrison Packard, was born — winning the university event in 7:54.8 and taking a cup for their efforts. A medley relay team won another first and another cup, while an entry in the college two mile relay concluded the clean sweep. Early in April, seven members of the Pepperdine team left for Texas. On April 5, at Austin, the blue and gold two mile foursome lost their season thriller to Drake University by two strides, but ran a 7:43.3 race — the fastest ever run by a two mile team from Pepperdine. Then on to the Southwestern Relays at El Paso, where Pepperdine placed fourth in the entire meet with firsts in a sprint medley and a distance medley and a second in the mile relay. A total of two cups was the result of the Texas trip. Deciding to enter the Penn Relays instead of the usual Drake competition, the two mile team of Russell, Funston, Seitz, and Packard left for Philadelphia during Easter week. On April 26, they met most of the nation ' s best, and in spite of over twenty teams and as many boxes, the group placed fourth with a time of slightly over 7:44. At press time, the trackmen looked forward to the Fresno West Coast Relays on May 17, the Coliseum Meet on May 24, and the Compton Invitational on June 7. Several members had hopes of entering individual events at the U.C.A.A. meet at Stanford. Besides members of the two mile team already mentioned, Larry Owens and Melvin Cooksey ran medley relays, and Frank Skandera, Anglo Justiss, and James Pierce participated at Long Beach. The track season also evidenced numerous Pepperdine athletes competing in various meets for the S.C.A.A. With Jack Russell the only graduating letterman, hopes are high for another successful season in 1941-42, marked by a continuance of Coach Weems ' admirable coaching activities. Page One Hundred Thirty-one Thu nan M. Buby (H(A With a goodly number of seven returning lettermen, but with a number of losses, the Wave nine opened the season with a slow break. The season pro- gressed much more favorably under the direction of Coach Benny LeFebvre, however, and ended with a fair record of five wins and nine defeats. Victories over Chapman and Loyola in the second games of two double bills, as well as over Cal Tech, La Verne and Glendale Junior College, high- lighted the season. Individual standout was iron-man pitcher, Bob Jones, who averaged almost fifteen strikeouts a game, made twenty-one against Chapman, and also vied with Morris Ruby for batting honors. Page One Hundred Thirty-two c , Coach Le Febre 1 .  tehh J Undefeated and untied by any college team and tied by but one university, is the record of Pepperdine ' s most successful athletic squad during the 1940-41 season — Coach Hubert Derrick ' s four-man tennis team. Three of the four were veterans, Dan Burke, Dick Williams, and Gary Ruby, and the other, a promising freshman, Oscar Berkovitz. The season opened with a trip to Santa Barbara, where the State College team was defeated 4-2. In rapid succession, the Pepperdine team blanked Redlands 6-0, nosed out Compton Junior College, 12-11, whipped Santa Barbara State again by a 4-2 score, and then submitted to a 3-3 tie with Redlands. Probable matches, in the process of negotiation at press time, were with Occidental and Pomona. With high hopes for these two encounters, the tennis team had a good chance of winning the unofficial tennis championship of Southern California colleges. Page One Hundred Thirty-four G.

Fellow students will acknowledge their attainments and honor them, as the Associated Students of George Pepperdine College have recognized, and selected from among many, these five for special distinction. MILDRED The contagiously happy disposi- tion of Mildred Watkins makes her very well liked among the students. Her spirit of good sportsmanship and her participation in the college ath- letic program have given her distinc- tion in the W.A.A. MORRIS Morris Ruby ' s fine sportsmanship in varsity athletics and his jovial good humor in social relationships, together with a deep appreciation for spiritual values, mark him a promi- nent figure on the Pepperdine campus. ROY Religious enthusiasm, outstanding speaking ability, and likable person- ality made Roy Key the students ' choice for President of the Associated Student Body for 1939-40. By his qualities of spiritual leadership he has done much to mold student morale around the ideals upheld by the college. MARJORIE Her excellent talent as a writer enabled Marjorie Morrison to make a distinctive contribution to student publications; her scholastic ability and her industry won for her the scholarship offered by the Faculty Wives Club; her congenial spirit gained for her many friends on the campus. MARGARET Margaret Alexander, president of the Marilyn Hall women, is outstand- ing in extra-curricular activities, be- ing an officer in Pollagrammatic, Alpha Gamma, Press Club, and Dra- matic Club. Friendliness, willingness to serve, and sincere spirituality char- acterized her relationships with both student and faculty. ftetJcn Page One Hundred Thirty-eight 4 It ieJ Page One Hundred Thirty-nine Page One Hundred Forty-one The Builders Congratulate George Pepperdine College Auditorium McNEIL CONSTRUCTION CO. 5860 AVALON BOULEVARD LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA J Page One Hundred Forty-two George Pepperdine College H.

To make certain that insurance is properly writ- ten is the work of a specialist. The average business man has neither time nor opportunity to become familiar with all the details of in- surance, for which he looks to a trained, ex- perienced advisor. Many business men have paid insurance premiums for years, in the erroneous belief that their policies afforded complete protec- tion. At the time of loss, it was too late to learn that the policy did not give this full pro- tection. The function of WESTERN INSURANCE SERVICE CO., as an insurance brokerage or- ganization, is to make a careful study of all risks involved, and recommend the proper in- surance coverage. This includes an analysis of existing policies, to make sure they are cor- rect in form and coverage, with necessary protective endorsements, etc. It also includes recommendations for improvements in the plant operations, based on engineering study. Insurance rates are based on the hazards in- volved, and the elimination of hazards may result in rate reductions that soon pay for the improvements. Important savings may be made in many kinds of insurance coverage. Work- men ' s compensation rates, for instance, de- pend on the accident record of the company, and the safeguards installed. Fire insurance may have been written under the wrong classi- fication, and may be corrected for lower costs. On every risk, there is one best policy, which the insurance broker is most competent to recommend. The insurance broker handles every kind of insurance, which gives him a broad knowl- edge of insurance problems in every line of business. He has the facilities of all the under- writing companies at his disposal. Mr. M. Christensen, President of Western Insurance Service Co., has spent many years in the highly specialized field of general in- surance. From this background of experience and study, his organization has improved the insurance coverage of many business and prop- erty owners in Southern California. The same high type of service is willingly extended to any business in this territory. Other officers are C. P. Shalluck, Vice-President and Otto F. Lee, Secretary-Treasurer Pepperdiners!
